I have met a couple of people recently who have been made redundant from banks in Qatar, although I think in general we will be lucky, and consequencies of credit crunch will be minimun due to the wealth of LNG and long term nature of supply agreements

Hi. Qatar is least affected, but people take advantage of the recession using it as a mask for all their shortcomings in terms of payment payable and receivable. Nothing new to the community as the payment side of business in Qatar was always been so. No use of exchanging bitter experiences. ! ! !

Good luck
